| Y22 | 160 | 0f2 | 148 |
| Y33 | 236 | 0f3 | 208 |

| Y55 | 347 | 0f5 | 329 |
Notes: The spherical harmonics are listed in the first column. The peak frequencies (in N-body or gravitational units) of the amplitudes for each spherical harmonic are measured for the Be0 simulation shown in Figures 4, 5, and 6 using the spectra shown in the bottom panel of Figure 6. The simulation has an equatorial impact on the Bennu shape model. The measured frequencies are listed in the second column. The relevant normal mode frequency is shown in the third column in the form nfl. The expected frequency of this mode for the same simulation is listed in the fourth column. These frequencies are computed following section §2.2 (equations 8 and 11) for a homogenous isotropic elastic sphere with a Poisson ratio of ν =1/4 and P-wave speed of 712 in N-body units. The predicted and measured normal mode frequencies are similar implying that the mass-spring model simulations are behaving as expected.
